Currently, every smartphone manufacturer is trying to create a phone with an under-display camera. As a result, we were able to see a Huawei phone with an under-display camera a week ago.
Today, we found that a patent for an unknown Xiaomi phone with an under-display camera has been authorized. In addition, Xiaomi has also applied for another under-display camera patent, which was leaked a month ago. However, there are differences between these two patents.
Xiaomi submitted this patent application on August 7, 2019, and it was authorized by the CNIPA today. The application number is 201930426669.0.
In the patent illustration, we can see the complete appearance of the phone. The phone features a rectangular display with no camera cutout. The back features a vertically arranged camera module. The left side has a volume button and a lock button. The right side contains the SIM card slot and an additional button that may be used for a particular purpose.
There is a charging port and a speaker at the bottom. At the top, there are two holes; one is confirmed to be the 3.5mm headphone jack, but the other is unknown. It might be a light sensor or something else.
So far, there is no further information about the upcoming under-display camera phone.
